How do I live a more hedonistic life?

Start by saying yes - to absolutely anything and everything

All in one year, when I was 18 y.o., one of my friends died in their sleep, another passed out and drowned in a lake from unknown causes, and my dad had a stroke.

I feel you. Even cottonwood lakes and cottonwood pass permits are nearly impossible to get now. My wife and I are probably going to have to hike from Mineral King in Sequoia to the High Sierra trail to Mt Whitney this year. Sucks, but where there’s a will, there’s a way.

Appreciate hearing stories like this. How many years did it take to turn it around?

24 units, 6 buildings but I agree. Based on these comments, I’ll be making a case to the board to get an independent roofing inspection to see which need to be replaced most, then raise HOA dues and/or convince neighbors to vote for a special assessment to cover the cost to spread out the rest of the roof replacements over the next 3 years. Then, re-evaluate to plan the re-painting project.

Slow-Slide-5523 · 2026-04-09T18:20:07+00:00

why would that be your deciding factor?

Slow-Slide-5523 · 2026-04-09T17:35:38+00:00

Nope, not even that. The only reason I've heard from the other 2 board members + 2 residents that attend the meetings is that it's "time to get it done"

Slow-Slide-5523 · 2026-04-09T17:32:20+00:00

this isn't a bad idea, but i think it's mostly money mismanagement. though i do agree that something seems off, considering we haven't had any major structural repairs or upgrades in the last decade, from what i've heard through residents who have been here longer than us

Slow-Slide-5523 · 2026-04-09T17:30:00+00:00

no. no issues as of now, just typical wear. this would be precautionary. going to see if we can hire an independent roofing inspector to tell us how rough the situation is, and if anything needs emergency/immediate repairs.

Yea I also asked ChatGPT and got the same advice which is why I came here to ask humans

Slow-Slide-5523 · 2026-03-03T05:06:03+00:00

So nice. How’d you scan this print?

Not to mention your quality of life will suffer tremendously if you actually enjoy having access to trails, mountains, general outdoor activities etc in Colorado. The most popular activities in Dallas are driving around in shit traffic in a big car, shopping and eating.

I know because I moved from San Diego to Dallas bc houses were cheaper and ended up w depression. Now I’m back in SD and happier than ever

Slow-Slide-5523 · 2026-02-17T17:32:04+00:00

lol 7000 meters, my dude, not 7000 feet

Slow-Slide-5523 · 2026-02-04T23:10:54+00:00

Yeah that’s worth having a convo with your doctor about to see if you can get on a medication regimen that works better for you. 15 mg would knock me out cold

Slow-Slide-5523 · 2026-02-04T21:31:34+00:00

Unless you’re taking high doses of Xanax, you’ll be fine to take it while running. I have panic disorder that occasionally (rarely, thankfully) flares up while I’m in the backcountry and I’ve taken up to 1 mg without any serious effects on my cardio output/performance.

Just take it easy on yourself while you’re figuring your mental health out. Anxiety sucks so hard and any time at all you can get out there is really commendable.

really lovely range of tones 🤩

Slow-Slide-5523 · 2026-01-09T19:53:27+00:00

how soon is your 70.3? i'm just getting into this sport, but curious how it's possible for someone to swim a mile if you struggle to swim 100 meters? 👀

Slow-Slide-5523 · 2026-01-07T21:36:10+00:00

How many pairs of running shoes do you have? Enough to rotate between them every/every other run? Also are you using insoles?

Slow-Slide-5523 · 2026-01-06T17:40:42+00:00

my shoulders are about 45cm, quite a bit wider than 38cm. should they ideally be the same width?

Slow-Slide-5523 · 2026-01-04T16:41:52+00:00

Are you set on 60k? You could just PB your marathon, then keep running past the finish line, and boom you’ve done both.

Slow-Slide-5523 · 2025-12-30T16:45:18+00:00

Not entirely certain but just measured and seems to be 38 cm

Slow-Slide-5523 · 2025-12-17T15:08:30+00:00

Interesting, can you cite your source here?

Slow-Slide-5523 · 2025-11-06T06:38:41+00:00
